About Us

In 2005, Genie was a product of a completely different nature. We were an HR services company that partnered with internal recruitment teams in large corporations to assist in setting up their recruitment hubs. Due to our expertise in both HR and recruitment, we were incredibly successful at saving clients up to 80% of their recruitment costs. However, the more we entrenched ourselves in their businesses, the more we realised that the technology, although acclaimed, being used by our clients was disconnected from the expectations of the personnel using the technology. Recruitment technology became our major area of concern. Existing recruitment systems were functional but overall only managed to save 15 - 20% of the client’s time, and generally only time spent on reporting. The screening of candidates remained the biggest pain point and whilst some systems offer the ability to screen out candidates using elimination questions, the number of quality applications dwindled on account of a negative candidate experience. In general, most systems offer some good functionality but a comprehensive solution was lacking.

We embarked on a journey of discovery with the desire to create a system capable of automating many of your recruiters duties. Genie is the renaissance that companies and large recruitment agencies have been waiting for, capable of screening candidates automatically and performing 80% of the tasks whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Genie is intelligent and can think and make decisions. The first applicant tracking system - ATS - designed to automate resume screening and drastically speed up the recruitment process.

What is Artificial Intelligence

What is Artificial Intelligence?
Firstly, stop thinking about robots! AI is not a robot; the robot is just the AI's vessel so AI is the smarts of the operation much like the brain in the body. Surprisingly you are using a form of AI in your current everyday life, not advanced AI but it is AI nonetheless. When you are chatting to Siri, when you get suggested search options on Google or when an online store flags something as 'suggested for you,' these are all basic forms of Artificial Intelligence. So an actual definition would read something like this... Artificial Intelligence is the intelligence displayed by machines or software and it is also a field of study whereby scientists are creating software and computers that are able to think and display capabilities of intelligent behaviour.
Why is this interesting?
Well because computers and software have trouble comprehending certain situations and are not able to adapt to changing circumstances or environments. This means that there is only so much a computer or software is able to do. Artificial Intelligence aims to improve machine behaviour in tackling such complex tasks. Together with this, much of AI research is allowing us to understand our intelligent behaviour and utilise this intelligence to aid in raising efficiency in everyday tasks.

Now imagine a recruitment system that learns! Imagine a recruitment tool that behaves like you would! An applicant tracking system ATS that thinks. This is the ultimate goal of Talent Genie.
